    That was pretty awesome. I never "raced" but was a track day junkie for a few years and I hope to do one more. After all the broken bones, pins, plates, screws, surgeries, road rash, and just a touch of brain injury the only people that question me why I would risk further injury by doing another track day are those that have never done it. If I have to explain it to you, you wouldn't understand.

    I haven't got the video to open yet but I'll figure it out.
    I raced for a VERY short time(couple races only), but the expense and a crash at Talledaga put an end to it. I was fortunate it didn't hurt me too bad but I did take the bike home in pieces, so continued with trackdays. I've been too out of shape to do them the past couple years but hopefully will get back and do one later this season. Its part of my motivation.

    Definitely. Also try this link instead:

    That's where I found it in the first place.

    600racer, I know exactly what you mean lol...the same could be said for getting on my bike yesterday afternoon when it was 107F rather than taking the air conditioned car to run errands.

    Or just riding a bike period lol.

    Little Talladega put me on the sidelines since 5/06.

    Sorry to hear that. I crashed coming out of the Double 90's. The bike took a much worse beating than I did.
